The days are getting warmer, the sun is shining brighter and we’re ready to explore the Hudson Valley's events. I love that spring marks the time of year when we are re emerging after winter with a fresh, new season to get excited about.

I’ve noticed that since it’s gotten warmer in the Hudson Valley, more people are outside and they appear to be happier.

On social media, there have been announcements already about some of our favorite fairs and festivals that will return this year.
